Katsu Sandos
Otherwise known as Japanese sandwiches, these menu items are becoming more popular throughout some of the hottest cities in the country. Created on sweet milk bread that is soft and fluffy, this sandwich typically is filled with a deep-fried pork cutlet or egg salad with some cabbage and tonkatsu sauce that is similar to steak sauce.
Pepper Jam
The versatility of pepper jam is quite impressive. It can be used as a dip for a delicious appetizer, a spread on a simple cracker, and makes the best glaze on meats like chicken, beef, or even fish. Cranberry pepper jam is one of the most popular jams due to its sweetness with a touch of spice. A few spoonfuls on top of some cream cheese can be served with a side of crackers for a delicious yet quick treat for all of your guests.
Hot Honey
Pepper jam isn’t the only condiment that will elevate your meal. Hot honey has become a staple to many restaurants around the world and now a staple to family pantries. Hot honey is infused with chiles and can be used in a variety of ways. It was originally created for a drizzle on pizza but now it’s kicking it up a notch and being used on sandwiches, ice cream, cocktails, and so much more.
Kimchi
While this food has been around for years, it’s become quite a popular food recently. THis is a Korean classic that is made with fermented cabbage and carrots in a spicy and tangy sauce. You can make it as a main dish or have it as a simple side with your favorite Korean dishes.
Spirulina
Lastly, an algae that has taken the world by storm. High in minerals, vitamins, antioxidants, and protein this blue-green algae is nearly in every green smoothie on the market or it at least should be.
